It’s about how Pat Ryan took a bitter loss at the 1985 Brier, to Al Hackner, and used it to return in triumph, change the sport of curling and become a villain.
We meet Hackner and are shown the stunning “Hackner Double” that won him and his team a championship back then. Ryan talks about the aftermath. People say he was depressed, but he denies it. Instead, he says, he just thought and thought about the rules of the game and using them to be ruthless. We see him in his prime, this intensely focused demon on the ice.
